Getting Back into the Swing of Things

Slowly but surely I'm getting back to where I was---well kind-of, I don't want the sewing like crazy to meet deadlines & the huge stash. I'm redesigning my website, re-doing my blog and eventually will be listing items back up on etsy & art fire. It's taking quite a bit of time & it would require me to sit in front of the computer for long periods at a time--I hate doing that! For some reason I feel like a lazy bum for doing it. 3 kids running around now & a growing belly keep me busy enough.

I took some time off to focus more on my family and work on my charity quilts for Project Linus, Warm up America & St. Judes Childrens Hospital. I have completed several and hope to make a couple more. I did participate in a couple of swaps during my hiatus just to keep the sewing juices flowing, and wanted to thank my swap partners for the wonderful items that were sent to me. If I didn't get to thank you before, I apologize. I really did mean to, but life kinda, sorta got in the way.

Here are photos of some of the charity quilts, silly me mis-placed my camera for some time & my deadline was nearing so I was not even able to take photos for my album :( It was soo hard to part with, but going to a good place.

So, those are the baby, crib quilts that I was able to photograph. I'm so in love with Rag Quilting now, I've started another fresh-cut quilt like the one above to make for my little girls. If you are interested in donating a crib quilt please let me know. I'm also participating in making pillowcases for the children's hospital with my local quilt shop---They have already donated over 200 pillowcases for the soldiers & are hoping to do the same, if not beat that amount for the children.

Well, that's it for now, it's off for some tidying around the house first & then catch up on some sewing!
